Arthur Rinderknech vs Oliver Tarvet — R128 — Wimbledon

Four hours and five minutes of holding serve nearly slipped away from the favorite, but Arthur Rinderknech banked both opening tiebreaks 7-6(4) and never had to chase. The margin was the return game: Oliver Tarvet, the WTA — ATP No. 349 ranked 321 spots below his opponent, converted the only break that mattered to steal the third set 6-4, but Rinderknech went 0 of 6 on break points all match and still found the one he needed, breaking in game 12 of the fourth to close it 7-5. He fired 33 aces to Tarvet's 16 and saved 8 of 9 break points, the serve that carried a player making 67 winners against 48 unforced errors. Tarvet, in his first tour-level match since pushing Alcaraz at Wimbledon a year ago, leaves with the moral edge and little else.
